SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:David Widder: Basic Research\, Lethal Effects: Military AI Research Funding as Enlistment
DESCRIPTION:Talk AbstractIn the context of unprecedented \nU.S. Department of Defense (DoD) \nbudgets\, this talk examines the recent history of DoD funding for \nacademic research in algorithmically based warfighting. I draw from a \ncorpus of DoD grant solicitations from 2007 to 2023\, focusing on those \naddressed to researchers in the field of artificial intelligence (AI). \nConsidering the implications of DoD funding for academic research\, the \ntalk proceeds through three analytic sections. In the first\, I offer a\n critical examination of the distinction between basic and applied \nresearch\, showing how funding calls framed as basic research nonetheless\n enlist researchers in a war fighting agenda. In the second\, I offer a \ndiachronic analysis of the corpus\, showing how a ‘one small problem’ \ncaveat\, in which affirmation of progress in military technologies is \nqualified by acknowledgement of outstanding problems\, becomes \njustification for additional investments in research. I close with an \nanalysis of DoD aspirations based on a subset of Defense Advanced \nResearch Projects Agency (DARPA) grant solicitations for the use of AI \nin battlefield applications. Taken together\, I argue that grant \nsolicitations work as a vehicle for the mutual enlistment of DoD funding\n agencies and the academic AI research community in setting research \nagendas. The trope of basic research in this context offers shelter from\n significant moral questions that military applications of one’s \nresearch would raise\, by obscuring the connections that implicate \nresearchers in U.S. militarism.\nSpeakerDavid Gray Widder (he/him) studies how people creating “Artificial \nIntelligence” systems think about the downstream harms their systems \nmake possible\, and the wider cultural\, political\, and economic logics \nwhich shape these thoughts. He is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Digital Life Initiative at Cornell Tech\, and earned his PhD from the School of Computer Science\n at Carnegie Mellon University. He has previously conducted research at \nIntel Labs\, Microsoft Research\, and NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. \nHis recent research has been accepted to FAccT\, Nature\, CSCW\, and Big Data & Society. His scholarly and activist work has appeared in Motherboard\, Wired\, the Associated Press\,  and the New York Times. David was born in Tillamook\, Oregon\, and raised in Berlin and Singapore. He maintains a conceptual-realist artistic practice\, advocates against police terror and pervasive surveillance\, and enjoys distance running. You can engage with him on Mastodon\, Bluesky\, or Twitter.\n\n\n

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:EEB Student Dissertation Defense: Above- and Belowground Functional Trait Variation and Its Effect on Tree Seedling Response to Environmental Change
DESCRIPTION:Dissertation Title: Above- and Belowground Functional Trait Variation and Its Effect on Tree Seedling Response to Environmental Change\n\nAbstract: To predict forest composition and function under global change it is important to understand tree responses to environmental shifts. This is especially true for seedlings\, as the seedling stage represents an important forest recruitment bottleneck. Therefore\, understanding the capability of seedlings of different tree species to respond to environmental changes will provide insight into how forests may look in the future. Tree responses depend on their ecological strategies\, which can be defined by the functional traits of their leaves and roots\, organs responsible for resource uptake above- and belowground. Prior work at the interspecific scale suggests that traits separate into three independent axes: above- and belowground resource conservation axes describing plants resource uptake efficiency and investment in organ construction\, and a belowground collaboration axis describing the degree to which plants rely on mycorrhizal fungi – key root symbionts that aid in resource capture belowground. However\, no work to date has explicitly tested if the proposed collaboration axis accurately describes how plants associate with mycorrhizal fungi\, and therefore the extent to which roots and their symbionts contribute to nutrient uptake within species remains largely untested. My dissertation addresses this through four chapters that systematically examine patterns of plant functional trait variation and their implications for seedlings success.\n\nIn Chapter 1\, I outline the current understanding of the relationships between roots and mycorrhizal fungi in trees\, proposing that because roots and mycorrhizal fungi operate together\, we should examine both simultaneously to get a thorough understanding of resource acquisition strategies belowground. In Chapter 2\, I examined whether the collaboration axis exists independently of the two resource conservation axes intraspecifically within seedlings of Quercus rubra\, Acer rubrum\, A. saccharum\, and P. serotina collected across Michigan. I found that aboveground traits are independent of belowground traits\, however belowground traits aligned on a single axis\, further calling into question the functionality of the collaboration axis.\n\nIn Chapter 3\, I examined the degree to which plant functional traits of tree seedlings vary with communities of mycorrhizal fungi across a nitrogen (N) gradient. Changes in N impact the function of plants and mycorrhizal fungi alike\, though no study to date has examined both simultaneously. I collected seedlings of two different mycorrhizal types: Q. rubra (ectomycorrhizal\; EcM)\, and A. rubrum and P. serotina (arbuscular mycorrhizal\; AM). Some EcM fungi can provide access to organic N that is otherwise inaccessible to plants\, providing an advantage at low N. I found that seedlings tended to be more acquisitive belowground at higher N\, EcM access to organic N decreased with N\, and that traits not included in the collaboration axis change with mycorrhizal function\, suggesting that the proposed collaboration axis is insufficient to describe plant reliance on mycorrhizae.\n\nIn Chapter 4\, I applied the trait patterns observed within species in prior chapters to see how variation in traits affects seedling growth under multiple environmental stresses. Prior work examined responses of plants to a single stress\; yet stresses rarely occur alone. I grew seedlings of Q. rubra\, A. rubrum\, and A. saccharum in the greenhouse under three levels of water and light\, measuring their growth and functional traits. I found that growth decreased under multiple stresses less than is expected based upon the reduction in growth experienced when exposed to singular stresses. Furthermore\, different species had different trait strategies to cope with multiple stressors.

SUMMARY:Exhibition:Michelle Hinojosa: Logcabins
DESCRIPTION:Stamps Gallery commissioned Michelle Hinojosa (MFA\, 2023) to reimagine the pillars on Division Street that flank the Gallery. Hinojosa has created log cabin quilts to adorn the columns in front of Stamps Gallery. The log cabin quilts traditionally represent the warm hearth at the center of a home. This installation reflects on the interplay between home\, placemaking\, labor\, and intergenerational memories of migration. Rather than quilting cotton designed to softly embrace the body\, these quilts are sewn from outdoor grade\, UV-resistant polyester. The quilt is an ode to Hinojosa’s grandmother who illegally crossed the US/Mexico border holding her babies and her quilts. As she and her family drove across the United States to work in the fields of the Salinas Valley\, the quilts offered a safe space for her and her family. Hinojosa celebrates their resilience to her grandmother and elders while also drawing attention to precarity and violence experienced by refugees and migrants crossing the US-Mexico border in our present today.\nArtist’s bio:\nMichelle Inez Hinojosa is an artist\, educator\, and researcher whose work is informed by Indigenous and Latine/x/a/o studies. Born and raised in Texas\, she earned her Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in both drawing and painting and art education with a minor in art history at the University of North Texas. She holds a Master of Fine Arts from the University of Michigan. She works with quilting\, bead weaving\, embroidery\, jewelry\, transparent film installations\, painting\, ceramics\, and sculpture to honor and explore the history of migration in her family and humanize the current discourse around migration still occurring at the southern border. Alongside her artwork she maintains a writing practice to re-story\, re-make\, and re-claim the often subordinated narratives of Latinx\, Chicanx\, Mexican\, and Texican peoples. \n\nRecently\, Hinojosa was named an inaugural Creative Careers Artist in Residence at the University of Michigan\, she has also attended residencies at Mildred's Lane (Pennsylvania)\, Anderson Ranch Art Center (Aspen\, CO) and The Cedars Union (Dallas\, TX).

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Frontiers in Scientific Machine Learning Seminar 12: Operator Networks Based on Numerical Analysis
DESCRIPTION:11th April 2025\, 12pm -1pm\nVenue: 2636 GGBA and Zoom \nZoom Link: https://umich.zoom.us/j/97823527756?pwd=H01BbvtuG5q02Wzb8LJvhUnvijlAIe.1\n\nAbstract: We propose a novel approach for solving parametric partial differential equations (PDEs) using an operator network. This method combines the strengths of deep learning with traditional numerical techniques\, specifically the finite element or spectral element methods\, to address parametric PDEs ranging from singularly perturbed convection-diffusion equations to the Navier-Stokes equations\, all without requiring paired input-output training data. Through extensive experiments on various benchmark problems\, our approach has demonstrated excellent performance across diverse settings\, showcasing its versatility in terms of accuracy\, generalization\, and computational efficiency. The proposed framework holds significant potential for applications in fields where PDEs are critical for modeling complex domains with diverse boundary conditions and singular behavior. Additionally\, we provide a rigorous theoretical convergence analysis\, grounded in numerical analysis\, to further support our approach.\n\nBio: As an Associate Professor at Seoul National University\, Youngjoon Hong focuses his research on the mathematics of machine learning and its applications in scientific computing. He earned his Ph.D. in Mathematics with a minor in Scientific Computing from Indiana University under the guidance of Professor Roger Temam\, where he developed a strong foundation in theoretical analysis and computational techniques. During his postdoctoral work at the University of Illinois at Chicago with Professors Jerry Bona and David Nicholls\, he conducted research on electromagnetic and water waves\, further honing his problem-solving skills. He later initiated independent studies on the use of neural networks in scientific research\, leading to a focused research program at San Diego State University\, where he began investigating neural network approximation within scientific machine learning. Currently\, his work is dedicated to developing theoretical frameworks that enhance the reliability and applicability of neural networks in addressing complex scientific and engineering challenges.

SUMMARY:Performance:Jenna Moon\, carillon
DESCRIPTION:SMTD doctoral alumna Jenna Moon performs on the Charles Baird Carillon\, an instrument of 53 bronze bells located inside the Burton Memorial Tower. The largest bell\, which strikes the hour\, weighs 12 tons\, while the smallest bell\, 4½ octaves above\, weighs just 15 pounds.\n\nThirty-minute recitals are performed on the Charles Baird Carillon at noon every weekday that classes are in session\, followed by visitor Q&A with the carillonist. The bell chamber may be accessed via a combination of elevator and stairs. Take the elevator to the highest floor possible (floor 8)\, and then climb two flights of stairs (39 steps) to the bell chamber (floor 10). Hearing protection earmuffs are provided for visitors. Be prepared to walk on ice and snow in the bell chamber during winter. Built in 1936\, the Charles Baird Carillon is not ADA accessible. Visitors with mobility concerns are invited to visit the Lurie Carillon.

SUMMARY:Workshop / Seminar:Mapping the inner world of cells
DESCRIPTION:Cellular processes are orchestrated by many biomolecules in a spatially and temporally coordinated manner within a tiny volume. To uncover the underlying organizational principles and their functional relevance\, we take microscopy visualization as the primary approach to systematically map their spatial localization\, temporal dynamics\, and activity profiles. By combining small tags engineered from split fluorescence proteins and CRISPR/Cas9-mediated gene editing\, we have enabled the creation of the OpenCell library: > 1300 human cell lines with endogenously tagged proteins for both microscopy visualization and biochemical analysis. We have further developed the deep-learning framework to connect cellular images of proteins to their amino acid sequences.
